Siheyuan: I have broken space

When Jia Mu saw Zijuan, she was a little stunned. She looked at her in surprise and asked, "Why are you back? Where is my Yu'er?"

Zijuan said: "To reply to the old lady, the girl returned to the capital with Mr. Lin yesterday. This slave is here to deliver a message to the old lady."

Jia Mu asked: "Yu'er is back, why don't you come to see me?"

Zijuan couldn't answer this question, so she had to take out Lin Ruhai's greeting card.

Jia Mu looked at it carefully, and her face became gloomy. The Lin family did not inform them in advance when they returned to Beijing, and did not let Lin Daiyu come over. Jia Mu felt resentful in her heart.

"Please tell me carefully what happened."

Zijuan then explained in detail what happened after Jia Lian left.

When he heard that Lin Ruhai had donated his family property, he couldn't bear it anymore and shouted angrily: "Master Lin, Hu Tu. He donated his family property for the sake of his reputation. What will my poor Yu'er do in the future?"

"

Mrs. Xing, who was sitting aside, couldn't help being surprised. Lin Ruhai was so generous. But since the Lin family had so much property, why were all the maids and wives in the house saying that Lin Daiyu was here to catch the autumn wind.

After Mrs. Xing was surprised, she felt a little pity. If only a small part of the money could be given to her, she would be satisfied.

Compared to Mrs. Xing's greedy thoughts, the look of dissatisfaction on Mrs. Wang's face was even heavier.

Mrs. Wang pointed at Zijuan and asked: "Such a big thing happened, why didn't you report it earlier?" She obviously forgot how Zijuan, a maid, could spread the news from Yangzhou to Rongguo Mansion.

Zijuan quickly defended: "Madam, I only found out after the imperial envoy arrived in Yangzhou. By that time, it was too late."

Mrs. Wang was already on fire because the Lin family's property was gone, and Zijuan's excuses only added fuel to the fire. Fortunately, she still had reason and did not continue to rebuke her in front of everyone.

Mother Jia asked, "Why didn't you tell me about such important events as Uncle Lin's donation of family property and his return to Beijing?"

Those present were all female students. The female students of the Jia family seldom went out to socialize, so they were naturally not well-informed.

When Jia Mu saw that the people below were all confused, she felt even more uncomfortable.

"Go and call She'er, Zheng'er, and Lian'er."

Upon hearing Jia Mu's call, Jia She and the others did not dare to neglect and hurried to Jia Mu's yard. However, Jia She lived far away and was the last to arrive.

Jia's mother didn't care to pick on Jia She's question and asked directly: "Why are you still hiding it from me about Uncle Lin's return to Beijing?"

The three Jia family men present also looked confused, as if they were asking when Lin Ruhai would return to Beijing.

In such a scene, how could Mother Jia not be angry? She scolded Jia She, "She'er, who told you to hide such a big thing from me?"

Jia She also reacted at this time and said: "Mother, my son is neither an official nor a court official, how could he know about such a big event?"

Everyone in the room nodded inwardly. Yes, the eldest master drinks wine at home all day long and really doesn't know about the affairs of the court.

As everyone looked at Jia Zheng, Jia Zheng immediately felt ashamed and annoyed.

After all, Jia Mu felt sorry for her youngest son, so she came to the rescue and said, "That's all, it's useless to ask so many questions now. Lian'er, go out and find out quickly."

Jia Lian didn't dare to delay for a moment and ran out to inquire about the news.

Lin Ruhai's matter has caused such a big fuss, and he was carried out from the Supreme Emperor's residence yesterday. All the dignitaries in the capital know about it.

Although it was strange that Jia Lian didn't know about Lin Ruhai, he patiently told him.

In the end, the Jia family came to the conclusion that Lin Ruhai might have offended the Emperor.

This is amazing.

The Jia family is all thinking about whether Lin Ruhai's incident will affect their family.

Mrs. Wang thought of Jia Yuanchun and was afraid that Jia's mother would take Lin Daiyu back and bring trouble to her mother-in-law.

"Old lady, since Uncle Lin is ill, it's best not to disturb him."

Jia's mother was also hesitant. From Lin Ruhai's case, it can be seen that the Jia family has no allies at all in the court. If Lin Ruhai can gain a foothold in the court, it will be of great benefit to the Jia family.

However, the Lin family had offended the Supreme Emperor.

Mrs. Wang's words gave Jia Mu a step up, and she said: "Uncle Lin's health is important, so you should not disturb his recovery."

The descendants of the Jia family really failed to live up to expectations. Up to now, the entire Jia family still relies on the old lady Jia Mu. Now that Jia Mu has made up her mind, the others breathed a sigh of relief, and no one thought about going against her will.

Here, Wang Tingxuan was also stopped by King Zhongshun.

"Your Majesty, I really don't have any good prescriptions at hand right now."

Prince Zhongshun said: "I'm not here to ask you for prescriptions. I have something to ask you. I gave the emperor an idea to let the imperial concubine pay a visit to the bride. What do you think?"

It turns out that this idea came from Prince Zhongshun.

"I don't know."

King Zhongshun obviously did not want to get any advice from Wang Tingxuan, and this was not what he wanted.

"I don't want to embarrass you anymore. Brother Huang is very likely to agree with my suggestion." King Zhongshun said proudly, "I just want to ask you if there is any way to make a fortune."

Wang Tingxuan said: "Prepare the building materials in advance, and it is best to specify the materials from specific merchants. As well as the interior decoration, it is best to let the Ministry of Rites provide guidance. It is the emperor's grace for the queen to be married, and the place where the queen is to be married should not be too large.

You are so petty."

King Zhongshun said: "This is okay. Are there any other good ideas?"

Thinking that the emperor had also handed over the glass business to Prince Zhongshun, Wang Tingxuan said: "The prince asked the craftsmen in the glass workshop to think more about some novel products and send some to the emperor, so that others will know that the emperor loves glass products."

"I've thought of this too. If you think about it again, is there any other way?"

Any other way?

With these ideas, which imperial concubine's palace can support them?

As long as the emperor's decree comes down, those powerful people will definitely try their best to build villas for relatives. In addition, each family will compete with each other to see who can afford it. The emperor's recent concubines are all daughters of noble families.

The purpose is to win over and stabilize them.

Although King Zhongshun's idea has a bad reputation, it can weaken the powerful to the greatest extent. At the same time, it can also trigger conflicts between them and divide and rule.

In the original work, in order to build the Grand View Garden, the Jia family not only consumed all the Lin family's property, but also borrowed a large sum of money from relatives. This villa for relatives was simply a bottomless pit.

However, the reason why the Grand View Garden cost so much was because the housekeepers of the Jia family also put a lot of effort into it.

After the Jia family built the provincial villa, Aunt Lai's family also built a garden. From Jia Tanchun's words later, it can be seen that the garden at Lai's house was envied by even the masters of the Jia family. The tricks of housekeeper Tanchun

, I learned it from the Lai family.

Although the daughters of the Jia family are not taken seriously, they cannot stand the luxury of the Jia family's life. What kind of good things have they not seen? The Lai family garden, which can make Tanchun's memory deep, must have cost a lot.

How did the Lai family's property come from? Wasn't it from the Jia family's personal enrichment? The materials used to build the garden were probably bought by the Jia family when they built the Grand View Garden.

When the trend of provincial villas passes, the capital's consumption power will not recover in a short time. The Lai family can't handle all the materials for the time being, so they simply build a garden for their own home.
